  1. Jobless in Seattle!

    Yes this is what I thought too but apparently in practice, this isn't the case. I do know what you mean, half the applications you can't progress without filling in your license number but I guess no one actually reads them in my experience. Thank ...
  2. Jobless in Seattle!

    So you moved to WA without a job? Just wondering what methods everyone here used. I am currently out of state and trying to get a job in WA. I might have to move to WA because what is holding me back are the nurse recruiters assuming that I don't alr...
  3. Does WA not hire people from out of state??

    Yeah I've done all of that except not getting the interview part. Are you a RN because I'm a LPN. I actually even go to google maps and just call everyone, all 4 or so pages.
  4. Does WA not hire people from out of state??

    Thank you everyone! Sorry for the delay. I have been going to the hospital websites. I do realize hospitals likely won't hire me. I just do not want to work with an agency or home health because they are unstable and no benefits. I have been sendin...
  5. Best and Worst places for LPN opportunities

    Well I am a nurse (LVN/LPN) and my license is apart of the NLC. The Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) enables multistate licensure for nurses so can anyone comment on any of the following states as a nurse and if any of these are actively still looking f...
  6. How is the market for LPNs?

    Jurisprudence wow really? I'm in a state with the Nurse Licensure Compact https://www.ncsbn.org/nlc.htm so does that still apply?
  7. How is the market for LPNs?

    No real place in mind to live, I just want to move to Texas to be an LPN. Would I still have any luck finding a job here stable enough to support after a coast to coast move? I have 5 years experience and trying to get out of the east coast. It s...
  8. How is the market for LPNs?

    No real place in mind to live, I just want to move to Oregon to be an LPN. Would I still have any luck finding a job here stable enough to support after a coast to coast move? I have 5 years experience and trying to get out of the east coast. It ...
  9. Best and Worst places for LPN opportunities

    Anymore suggestions? LPN going on 5th year of experience here and clearly Seattle is dried up. Been trying for 6 months trust me. How is California? Portland? I'm on the East coast trying to escape.
  10. I have been applying to nearly EVERY listing on craigslist, 24/7! I never get a followup call or any response at all. I am also in the VA system and apply that way to no avail either! I don't even care really WHERE in WA the job is, I just want to m...
  11. Relocating to Spokane

    Which is the best city in the tri? Is Spokane really that bad? Also can someone suggest good schools in either the TriCities or Spokane that is good for LPN to RN?
  12. Anyone actually hiring LPNs?

    I see a bunch of jobs by places like providence and Swedish Medical Center but I've spent my summer applying to them along with many of the same positions that are STILL listed as open months later! Now all you see are temp flu shots positions. I n...

  15. Is it really hard to find a job as LPN in WA?

    Thank you VERY much!! I would have been expecting a totally different experience if I did not come here. I hope this thread can help others in the future. I have been able to find many jobs but without a license I can't be hired. I hope this proce...
